[PATCH 03/26] staging: hv: fix netvsc sleeping while atomic

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Timo TerÃs <timo.teras@xxxxxx>

The channel callbacks are called directly from vmbus_event_dpc
which runs in tasklet context. These callbacks need to use
GFP_ATOMIC.
